Not that I don't agree with the general sentiment here, but...05/02/2017 09:00 AMPosted by isshomanthey've already said that the skins will eventually be coming to loot boxes so if you hate the game that much then just wait.Source?

It is a little known fact that Blizzard servers run on player's rage."Bad" matchmaking?Balance changes that seem to make no sense?Server instability?Events starting late or ending early?You think these things are evidence of Blizzard mishandling its games. But no my friend, it is all part of the plan to keep power costs down. The angrier you get, the more powerful Blizzard becomes.And they know you can't stop it.[cue Twilight Zone music]

It takes all of half an hour to get the Oni Genji skin.It takes all of two hours to play 5 pvp matches for the D.Va skin.You have a month to complete both quests.This isn't some impossible quest that will take half your lifetime, all your money, and your firstborn son. It's at most a small inconvenience for the sake of obtaining a skin that has zero impact on the game.

According to the Heroes of the Storm 2.0 website, you can't skip steps in the Nexus Challenge. This means that you need to complete the five games for the Week 1 challenge before Week 2 challenge is available.Quote (emphasis mine):After Heroes of the Storm 2.0 goes live in your region, a new Quest will unlock each week. Quests must be completed in order, and only one can be active at any given time. All 4 Quests remain open until May 22.Link: http://us.battle.net/heroes/en/heroes20/nexuschallenge20/

04/19/2017 07:38 AMPosted by BustarSo how about the players who only spam QP be matched together and those who have competitive ranks be also together?So as long as I play ten competitive games every three months, I can use your super-special, not-for-scrubs, totally-cool, Quick Play For Wannabe Pros? Sounds like there's a bit of a flaw in your plan, buddy.

Just because you have a female Reinhardt (for example) it doesn't mean she would be of a different size.04/17/2017 10:00 AMPosted by Macedolago2) Blizz would have to find new voice actorsThis, in a nutshell. The amount of work needed to create cross-gender skins would be way too much for something which is essentially given away for free. And if they cheap out on making the skins (say, by keeping the normal voicelines), then nobody will be happy with them.04/17/2017 10:00 AMPoste…

04/16/2017 08:39 AMPosted by BreadIf this maintenance takes up time will that time be returned by extending the event or by the forum or free loot boxes?Given that most events seem to end a few hours late, I would say most likely they won't extend it just because of the authentication server issues.

The penalty doesn't trigger over leaving one game. You have to have left four out of the last twenty games for the penalty to trigger. So you didn't just leave "1 quickplay match to go eat dinner."Also, the idea that leaver penalties are unnecessary because of the backfill system is disingenuous at best. Given how much people dislike backfilling games, removing the leaver penalty would mean nobody would ever finish a game, because people would never stick around if they end up in a backfill game.
